In this issue:
 Cardinal George: ‘St. Bridget was a follower of Jesus who came to know him and rose to holiness by praying, “Lord, show me thy way, and make me willing to follow it.” She prayed to know God’s will, but then she knew she had to pray that God might change her will in order to follow his.’
